The Scene – In the '90s, Lia Schorr was the queen of Gotham day spas, as the scores of press clippings that line this spa's walls prove. While the posh bar has been raised to current standards of luxe (fresh lemonade, crudites and massaging pedicure chairs are among the improvements), Schorr has never stopped updating the services on her menu. The clientele is 50 percent male, so the 35-year beauty vet also provides shaving, anti-aging and acne advice geared towards men. – – The Services – The famous European deep-pore cleansing facial, performed on a barcalounger,…

Wonderful place to pamper yourself !
by DWM
I have been going to Lia Schorr for 4 years now. Each time ,I was impressed by the cordial treatment and expert care. The staff is obviously skilled and they show concern for individual needs. My favorite treatments are facials and massages, but all other spa services are also available,as is a full line of quality skin care products. Lia also offers periodic treatment packages at discounted prices. This spa is an oasis of relaxation in the midst of one of the world's most hectic cities!Treat yourself to a day at Lia Schorr's!
- Pros: Courteous and Professional Service
- Cons: I live too far away (Eastern L.I.) to go more often.

Best facial, massage and down-there wax!
by reeno
This place may be small, but the service makes you feel like you're being pampered in a palace. The facial is a comfortable, relaxing experience... the masseuses are so incredible you would think they are mind-readers the way they hit all the right spots... and there is nowhere else i'd go for that down-there wax, simply because I know everything is clean and the ladies make you feel so at ease, that it's quick and virtually painless. The best part is that there is nowhere else in the city where you could get this kind of quality without getting ripped off.
- Pros: Professional, clean, friendly & affordable
- Cons: no complaints

Best Facial in New York for Under $100
by putzi2
I have been coming here for facials for the past 20 years. It's certainly not the fanciest place in town, and maybe it's not for everyone, but dollar-for-dollar, I believe that there is no equivalent place in New York City. All of the facialists are extraordinarily well-trained (no new beauty school grads practicing on your face!). They can extract all your blackheads without leaving a mark on your face, which is no mean feat. The owner, who is Israeli, is sometimes described as abrubt and rude but is actually quite nice once you get to know her. She does march to her own beat, and if you feel your experience was not what you imagined, you need to tell her as much. The way that she is able to hold down the prices on the facials, which are all topnotch, is by having the facialists float between rooms during services. That means you will likely be by yourself during the steaming and masque portions of the service, but if you can deal with that, this place is an absolute homerun. The prices are even lower when you buy a package. Being Israeli, the owner is always willing to let you "bargain" for a better price (or a free add-on service), so bear that in mind when paying.
- Pros: Best-trained facialists in the city
- Cons: You don't get the undivided attention of the facialist
